About

We’re a dynamic team of experts in all facets of construction. We’re here to work together and combine our strengths and many, many years of experience!

Our Mission

At Flintstones our mission is to provide the best construction experience to our customer’s through high-quality construction, the finest materials, met timelines and a commitment to superior customer service.

We maintain a commitment to our customers, ourselves and the communities in which we work to always act with fairness, integrity, and respect; placing the needs of people first.

We believe that trust is at the center of every relationship we build. The product of our labour – cladding on a fine home, a restored heritage building, an elaborate landscape — is a legacy that will stand for generations. For that reason, we know it doesn’t pay to cut corners or take half measures. Mistakes last a long time.

Nothing less than extraordinary. We don’t settle for it. Neither should you.

At Flintstones our vision is to be a leading construction company on Vancouver Island and a premier workplace where employees strive to be the best they can be each day. Our vision is put forth into action through specialty systems, people centric policies, and innovative procedures continually refined to not only achieve steady business growth but also impact the community in a positive way.

By way of our continued success, it is our goal to improve all aspects of the community we operate in – socially, environmentally and economically – making strides to create a better future.

Our History

Flintstones’ history goes back to 1969, when Eric Lappnau moved to Vancouver Island from his native Denmark. Lappnau was a certified bricklayer who had experience building and restoring old world buildings and homes. Here in Victoria, Lappnau quickly developed a reputation for meticulousness that set him apart from his peers, resulting in a large base of repeat customers.

In the mid-1990s, Lappnau recognized the entrepreneurial potential in a 16-year-old named Michael de Palma, and took him under his wing. Lappnau’s devotion to his customers rubbed off on Mike. In 2007, when Lappnau was ready to retire, Michael enthusiastically took over the reins, and changed the business name to Flintstones.
Under Mike, Flintstones grew rapidly. In addition to the traditional chimney and fireplace repair business, Michael has expanded to include home waterproofing, concrete construction and repair,restoration, and landscape design and building, services that capitalize on the company’s deep expertise in all aspects of drainage and weatherproofing.
